Former club champion, Paul Ellis, was in close pursuit to finish 21st in a time of 41.37.

Meanwhile Ripon Runner Donna Riddler, auntie to Reece and Chloe, continued a great weekend for the family by running at the hilly Spen 20 mile race in Liversedge, West Yorkshire and finishing in two hours 29 minutes 21 seconds.

She once again formed part of the all-conquering trio of Sharon Barlow Hamilton (second female overall in 2:09:09) and Tori Green (thirdrd female overall in 2:10:56) to win another team prize.
